XXXIII—NO. 30 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, A COLLEGE OF
EDUCATION, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, May 10, 1935 Normalite MURDER!
* * * » MADNESS! * * * * MUSIC! MORE• T»H O*U G* HTS!
—By Elmer Lade And so it came to pass that no work was done, no one
was injured, miraculously no one was drowned, and every one deemed Campus
day a pretty sound idea. Whoever has to clean up Normalstad (lands, what
a name and what a connotation!) will probably cry around a little, but
that is neither here nor there. With such a preponderance of good will
toward the holiday, ticket hawkers will undoubtedly infest the campus
again next year. W.S.N.S. Suicidal manias have been known to sweep
Japan, causing young men and women to leap into flaming craters in such
numbers that guards were posted at all volcanoes. A similar craze seemed
to grip students out at Normalstad (what a name!) where everybody wanted
to overturn a canoe. Apparently the only thing that prevented a hundred
per cent baptism of the student body was the shortage of canoes.
Certainly conditions were favorable; the crafts were narrow-beamed, the
water choppy, and not a policeman within miles. It was a big day, a day
in which anyone could drown if he wanted to. W.S.N.S. Nor was the
assembly too bad. Aylmer Bright, equipped with a sheet and a sickle to
reprecent Father Time, but looking for all the world like Ruth about to
glean the fields of Boaz, and a well-timed revival of the old Diogenes
joke were enough to lift the show over any slow spots. W.S.N.S. r- The
hearty applause that followed the orchestra and vocal numbers reminded me
that while American folk songs (jazz to you) may be bad and banal, they
do possess the virtue of brevity. Lengthy classics, in which we first
hear the soft luting of farm fowls, followed by a G minor account of a
maiden's emotions at early mass, and so on through the gamut of sounds
and sensations are often a trifle on the tedious side. (In saying that I
expect the support of all fellow lowbrows.) It is just barely possible
that the masters were not altogether free from banality. W.S.N.S.
Attention! On the feature page, set 18 ems so that none will possibly
overlook it, is a letter-to-the-editor, expressing subtly, and in
exciting language the opinions a few young scholars hold regarding the
Northwest Viking and its staff. By all means read it and enjoy as we .
did its boisterous, blood-thirsty humor. It goes to show what a college
education can do for ambitious youngstes. W.S.N.S. (Excerpt from Hearst
Editorial). No problem before the country is more important than that
presented by the young man and woman who have left high school or college
and are trying to find their way into business, industry, or their
professions. Many young people have experienced disillusionment feeling
of frustration. I n this unhappy state of mind they give ear to subversive
teachings and to unpatriotic counsel piling up an enormous debt for
these young people to shoulder. I t is time that the leaders of the
nation and community gave a thought to the future and to the prospects of
the boys and girls who, in a few years, will have charge of the
government. o Skating Postponed Party Date Announced Next Friday
"Because of the sophomore class rec hour this week, the W club skating
party has been postponed until next Friday, May 17, at 8:00 at the State
Street auditorium", announces d i e t TJUin, manager. All skaters and
would-be skaters are invited. Ullin promises cheerful tinpan music
during the evening. The 15 cent tickets are on sale at the Co-op and by W
club members. :: • Board Decides To Discontinue Organized Rec
Ping Pong Equipment T o Be Left At Edens Hall for Student Use Editor
Will Be Selected Rolle Chosen Chairman of Picnic In Place of Johnson
With springtime in the air the tide of enthusiasm has turned from the
ping pong table to the tennis court. Marie DeGallier, general chairman of
the Edens hall mixed recreation program, stated in a meeting of the Board
of Control, Wednesday, May 8, that the attendance at the evening
sessiones has dropped off noticeably since winter quarter. After serious
consideration the board decided that at the end of May the program should
be suspended indefinitely. The ping pong equipment will be left in Edens
hall Dining room for the use of those who wish to play. The playing cards
and chess equipment will be removed until a time when the mixed
recreational program will again be put into effect. Editor To Be Chosen
At the request of Gordon Milli-kan, president of the Associated Students,
recommendations were made by the board members for the editorship of the
Blue book, the official student handbook of information. The editor will
be definitely decided upon at the next meeting of the board. By general
acclaim the board moved to send a vote of thanks to Mon Orloff for his
work as general chairman of Campus day. A unanimous agreement was made
that this year's Campus day was one of the most enjoyable in the history
of the school. It was reported that Cliff Johnson, newly elected
representative on the board, was not available for general chairmanship
of the all-school picnic. After considering a number of eligible persons
the board appointed Mabel Rolle in Johnson's place. The all-school picnic
is scheduled for Friday, May 24, at Rainbow beach on Lake Samish.
Strange Will Present Normal Musicians in Recital Here May 17 A spring
recital given by students of Miss Edith R. Strange will be one of the
outstanding musical programs scheduled for this quarter. They will appear
in concert next Friday, May 17. The program consists of solos and
ensemble work which are representative of romantic and modern composers
such as Schubert, Cyril Scott, Arensky, Trygve Torgussen, Boell-mann,
Gounod, and D'Albert. The eight students who will appear on the program
are all students of the Normal, namely: Helen Griffith, Christine Albers,
Mary Rees Benson, Sue McMillan, Margaret Foster, Ruth Kirk, Edna Pearson,
and Florence Ford. o——-— Art Department Shows
Hand-Blocked Textiles An exhibit of hand-blocked textiles is being shown
this week in the room by the art department. Most of the pieces shown are
suitable for hangings and a few for dress material. The designs are cut
on linoleum and stamped onto the various kinds of cloth with printer's
ink. Of the fifty prints shown, three were made by Miss Dorothy
Mcll-vain, art instructor, several by students of schools in which she
formerly taught, and the remainder by students of the school. Is Huey
Long Full of'Hooey' 'Yea and Nay' Say Local Political Prognosticators in
Surveying Acts of Vociferous Senator from Louisiana From time to time
this space will be used as a sort of airing ground for student opinions.
This week various students were asked to discuss briefly that celebrated
gentleman from Louisana, Huey Long. ROSE WORKS: I think he is a joke. He
is an opportunist and I am surprised that anyone takes him seriously.
OSCAR SVARLIEN: In my opinion, in the opinion of a not insignificant
portion of the American population, Huey's Share-the-wealth program is
not so closely associated with "hooey" as his name would suggest. MON
ORLOFF: What have I got against Huey Long? I think he is plenty smart,
and no one can deny that he is getting along in the world, which, after
all, is what the most of us are trying to do. HARRY GOHEEN: I think he is
of little consequence to any thoughtful American. His program is
impossible and the man himself can have no real significance to anyone
who views contemporary events logically. JULIUS DORNBLUT JR.: While I am
not in favor of many things Huey Long has done, I do think he is far more
intelligent than a great many New Dealers. EEMAR LARSON: . That Huey
Long has ability is undeniable. Considering the machine he has built in
Louisiana, he can't be laughed off. Hitler was the butt of many jokes in
Germany—but it is different there today. BILL PIERRON: If I ever
think that Huey Long will become president I shall depart for Mexico
immediately. Art Department Displays Photos Portraits, Campus Scenes,
and Industrial Studies Featured By Ruckmick By Hazel Jean Plympton
.Camera enthusiasts, art students, nature lovers and their friends have
been improving their "ways-of-see-ing" by continued visits to Herbert
Ruckmick's exhibit of photographs on display in the Art department during
the last week. A wide variety of subjects makes up this exhibit.
Portraits, flower studies, landscapes, and industrial studies represent
such widely separated localities as New York, Washington, D. C, and
California, A generous number comes from Bellingham and our own campus.
It is not the subject matter, however, which impresses the visitor, but
rather the fascinating variety of light effects; the beautifully related
tones of "The Washington Monument" and "The Pulp Mill"; the jeweled
lighting in "George Washington Bridge"; the etching quality of "Riverside
Church"; the brilliance of "The Mimulus" against its dark background; the
contrast in texture in "The Dogwoods"; the halo of light in "Mother"; and
the care in design in "The Group on the Porch of Edens Hall", and "The
Bellingham Hotel'. Such an exhibit gives us all an inspiration to perfect
our hobbies. If we can pursue them with the same zest for fun and skill
as Mr. Ruckmick has done, we may hope for some measure of success. o
Weythman Returns From PE Meeting Miss Ruth Weythman returned Sunday
evening from the national convention of the Physical Education
association at Pittsburg. The convention was to commemorate the fifth
anniversary of the association, first organized by Dr. Gilbert Anderson,
who was present at all of the meetings. Miss Weythman stated that she
was particularly interested in the reports of national committees. One of
the most interesting addresses was given by Dr. E. McCullen of Johns
Hopkins university, on "Food Nutrition and Health". The 1936 convention
will be held in St. Louis; 1937 in New York; and 1938 in San Francisco.
Conference Will . Be Held Soon on PE Building Plans List of Students
Eligible for June Diplomas Now Being Completed Salaries of faculty
members, withheld during the month of March -were received May 8, as the
result of a conference in Olympia with Governor Clarence D. Martin,
attended by President C. H. Fisher and Dr. W. D. Kirkpatrick, chairman of
the Board of Trustees. Plans are also developing favorably on the
Physical Education building, according to Prexy. Concerning development
of the new building, President Fisher reports that plans are progressing.
A conference will be held next week at which time architects Bebb Gould
of Seattle, Normal physical education instructors, and President Fisher
will criticize the plans. O. N. Munn, civil engineer, is scheduled to
discuss location of the building, a question still not definitely settled.

People and Place Perhaps the most interesting Campus day in the history
of the school was witnessed last Tuesday. Inasmuch as the day was an
innovation of commendable campus activities, Mon Orloff and his
subcommittee chairmen should all be praised for their fine work. The
first surprise of the day was the excellent turn-out for the morning
assembly. But the enthusiasm did not drop here, for it was estimated that
at least 425 students availed themselves of the opportunity to visit
Normalstad. Yes, Phil Campbell had the transportation end of the date
completely organized. The idea of going to Normalstad for the morning was
so well carried out that it is highly probable that it will become a
Campus day tradition. Anything that can acquaint such a large majority of
students with that splendid college playground deserves support. Then
Phyllis Greely received our sincere thanks for the noonday lunch, which
was as filling as it was appetizing. Pat Allan and Stuart Fresk next
deserved "three cheers" for arranging one of the most enjoyable student
talent assembly programs of the year. It was a hit in more ways than one!
The dance, with Oscar Starlund in charge, closed an extremely
well-balanced day of fun and exercise. And to everyone else that helped
keep the ball rolling, we say, "Thanks a lot for the day of pleasure". *
* * * The only thing we missed last Tuesday was the chance of seeing the
ability to take punishment which formerly has been displayed by the men
from Barton's and Daniels' hall in their annual water fight. o In Days
of Yore For the sake of an argument let's bring up the subject of Campus
day, past and present. It seems that back in the good ol' days, Campus
day meant that the students and faculty donned their overalls and straw
hats, armed themselves with hoes, rakes, and shovels and went to it.
Dandelions were eradicated, the lawn cut, and the running-track improved
and the trails on the hill were cleared. In the afternoon there used to
be a baseball game, faculty versus students, the women taking part as
well as the men. Rumor has it that President C. H. Fisher was an able
pitcher. At our recent Campus day, the main excitement took place in the
canoes, or rather, out of the canoes and into the water. Eight students
appeared as mermaids when canoes accidently overturned. In previous
years, the day has been ended with a carnival at the Armory or a show at
the American Let's Learn to Yodel For atmosphere—sun gleaming on
pure white snow, icy winds blowing from the mountain glaciers, and all
about the rare but pungent ozone of the Cascades (brrrr, are you cold?).
For leader—none other than the grand old trail-blazer of Normal
hikes, Dr. E. A. Bond. For companions—all those plucky souls who
dare to face the elements in the climb up the hill. You've guessed
it—tomorrow morning they start the long trek to Skyline ridge. with
a filling lunch—they say raisins are good—in your battered
old knapsack, a song in your heart, tra la, and away you'll go.
Seven-thirty may seem awfully early for Saturday morning, so if your room
mate fails you there's always the alarm clock. It is but a scant five
miles from the hamlet of Glacier to the destination of all the hardy
mountaineers who venture forth. Stragglers are guaranteed a push if they
can't take theater or a dance. The dance this **• Reorientation A
Review by Wilson Waylett 'Termanence and Change," by Kenneth Burke 1935.
New York New Republic, Inc. 256pp. $1.00. In this small volume Burke has
given, I believe, a contribution more worthy of permanence than any other
philosophic work produced of late. • The book is divided into three
sections, of which the first appeared in "The Plowshare" some time ago.
In this portion, "On Interpretation," bur author attempts to get at the
meanings behind meanings, the nature of an orientation, the basis of an
interpretation. He draws from the works of, persons of as varied natures
as Marx, Veblen, and I. A. Richards and makes the broadest possible
application of Pavlov's experiments on the conditioned reflex. In rounding
off this section, he considers the problem of social orientation and
lists magic, religion, and science as being the three great
rationalizations of history, each of which arose with and gave rise to a
certain social organization. Certainly the language which Kenneth Burke
utilizes to unfold this conception is worthy of note. Pellucid, mooth
flowing, it gives one a deceptive opinion concerning the depth of the
subject matter, until one finds oneself floundering. Like the poet, Burke
uses subtle overtones; his simple definitions have tremendous
implications. Burke feels that much or the instabiity of the modern word
is due to the inadequacy of old rationalizations to deal with the
contemporary situation and the confusion arising from conflicting
orientations. This idea, which he elaborates in the second major portion
of the work, "Perspective by Incongruity," accounts for the incongruous
and impious (for him, impiety is that which breaks with tradition)
attempts of such individuals as Nietzsche and D. H. Lawrence to establish
new perspectives, new systems of values. But he sees the "Basis of
Simplification," to which he devotes the last part of the book, to be
rather a sort of synaesthesia of materialism, idealism, and dialectical
materialism. This he terms "dialectical bio-logism," or "metabiology."
Communism, he feels, embodies something of this viewpoint and offers the
only solution to our difficulties. For "Communism is a cooperative
rationalization or perspective which fulfills the requirements suggested
by the poetic metaphor. It is fundamentally humanistic, as poetry is." By
way of closing, he humbly admits the limits of his little survey: "We, in
cities, rightly grow shrewd at appraising man-made institutions—but
beyond these tiny concentration points of rhetoric and traffic, there
lies the eternally unsolvable Enigma, the preposterous fact that both
existence and nothingness are equally unthinkable." year proved very

the land— TIIELMA COWEN and ANNA PADDEN—and

WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, A COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, BELLINGHAM,
WASHINGTON Tracksters Go To University; Meet Freshmen Mediocre Track
Team To Have Stiff Competition From Husky Pups Edmundson Has Stars
Normal Defeated In Track Meet Vikings Have Possibility To Win Six Blue
Ribbons A mediocre track team from Bell- Ingham travels to Seattle today
to compete with the strong Husky frosh squad on the stadium track. The
Vikings stand an equal chance of bringing home six blue ribbons out of a
possible fifteen firsts from t h e pups. Frosh Have Stars Coach Hec
Edmundson has on his yearling squad this year two of the most promising
young athletes in the country, Bill Vanderway and Art Morgan. Vandermay
from Lynden high school set a state high jump record, 6 feet 5 inches.
Morgan, a Roosevelt high school product from Seattle, has run the high
hurdles in 15.4, the lows in 24.5, and the hundred yard dash close to 10
flat. Experts rate him a successor to Steve Anderson. His team mate,
Marshall Stuffield, is almost his equal and should be good for seconds in
both hurdles. Taylor and Kenoyer Favored Bill Taylor will give his
competitor trouble in the. mile and should win if comparative times mean
anything. Tony Zambas and Coke Guglomo should both tally in the discus
if they duplicate their practice throws. In the 880 Kenoyer is due to
show some of last year's form and break through with a win, having turned
in better ttime than his Husky opponent, Stigar. I n the century, Arne
Johnsen will have to run almost 10 flat time to beat Art Morgan who is a
heavy favorite to trim him in the low hurdles. Holder Has Plenty
Competition Don Holder will have his hands full against Vandermay in the
high jump, Morgan and Stuffield in the hurdles, but should give Anderson
a ragged run for a first in the board jump. Brinky is in for a tough
afternoon in the two mile, but if he runs the eights laps like he did
against CPS, he will be hard to beat. Vikings Have Weaknesses The
Vikings are exceptionally weak in the pole vault- and shot, and can
hardly expect to place in these events. Willard. McKenzie should collect
in the javelin. Ellis Austin, who came through with a third in the 440 at
Tacoma Saturday, should place again. Guglomo and Hudson both have a good
chance of placing in the 220 if they run. The strength of the Husky relay
team is unknown except that they were beaten by CPS, as was the Viking
quartet. C P S Shows Superior Strength Over Ellensburg, Vikings; Holder

In a triangular track meet with CPS and Ellensburg held Saturday, May 4,
the Bellingham squad came in second. CPS scored 74 points, Bellingham 38,
and Ellensburg 19. The first place winners for Bellingham were Holder,
Taylor, Brink-man, and Johnsen. Holder won two first places to tie with
Carlson of CPS for first point honors of the day. Holder took first place
in the broad jump and first in high hurdles. CPS won first,in 8 events

By Norsemen Viking sluggers showed their superiority over Whatcom's
undefeated nine when they won a slugfest by a score of 15 to 8. Normal
scored ten of its runs in the first two innings, driving pitchers Frank
and Greenwalt from the Redskins' mound. Severins, Alpaugh, Miller, and
Stutz lead the Viking batters, while Fowler, Anderson, and Senuty were
leading hitters for Whatcom. The Campus day game was a ragged affair with
both teams contributing many errors. Tooley and Dombros-ki were the
chuckers for Normal, with McKenzie and Hammond catching. The fielding
department of the Normal squad was very good but the hitting was a little
weak. Earl Jewell, physical education instructor at Whatcom, umpired the
entire game. Looking It Oyer By George Lovos CPS certainly made last
week-end a disastrous one for the Viking sports world. A clean sweep of a
four game baseball series, a track victory by a 35 point margin, and a
win for their golf team should be a tasty enough morsel for any school to
wish to guzzle at one time. * * * * However, there were some bright
spots in the showing of the track team at Tacoma last Saturday, when they
came out 18 points ahead of Ellensburg to take second place. Holder
looked like a sure point-getter, taking a first in both the high hurdles
and broad jump, and a tie for second in the high jump. Taylor turned in a
fast mile to take first there, while Johnson in the low hurdles and
Brinkman in the two mile added 10 more points. * * * * With these men
continuing to improve, and several others like Kenoyer, Sargent,
McKenzie, Zambas, Austin, and Hudson always good for some points, the
squad stands a very good chance of taking the tri-Normal meet at
Ellensburg. Kenoyer should take a .first in the 880 there, and if Austin
can keep from getting boxed in again he may threaten in the 440. * * * *
The uncertainty as to positions on the tennis five, even this late in
the season, is giving Coach Sam Carver a good hustling squad this year.
With Orloff, Joly, Starlund, and Mullen continually scrapping for runner
up positions to Snaggle's coveted number one post good heads up tennis
results. Wickstrom in number 6 is still right on their heels,
threatening, too. However, the boys were rather silent about their mix
with the U. W. Frosh last Wednesday. * * * * The golf team Helped take
the sting out of all those defeats when they drubbed the U. W. five,

Viking tennis squad lost six out of seven matches to the University of
Washington Frosh in Wednesday's play in the Seattle courts. Oscar
Starlund was the only local man to win his match, beating Sahen 2-6, 6-3,
6-3. The unf amiiarity of the local team with playing on asphalt courts
hampered their style somewhat. This type of court is much slower than
cement and therefore players have to change their tactics accordingly. In
the opener, Ladd Shangle lost in straight sets to Crapo, 0-6, 4-6.
Johnstone defeated Mon Orloff 6-2, 6-2, while Joly was hacked by Murphy
1-6, 1-6. Wickstrom, substituting for Mullen, forced Gray to three sets
before losing. In the doubles play both the Starlund-Shangle, Joly-Orloff
combinations lost their matches. Last Monday the Viking netsters Camp

songs in preparation for the trip. The archery class has finally found a
suitable place for it targets. They have been placed at the end of the
track where observers and passers by are safe from flying arrows. The

COAST P A P E R M I L LS Bellingham, Washington Women's League Delegates
Report On Oregon Trip Present, Future President Give Impressions of
Convention At Corvallis "The convention was most interesting and
successful and plans were laid for continuing these annual metings," said
Dolly Anderson, president-elect of the Women's league in speaking of the
Northwest convention of the Intercollegiate Association of Women
students, held at Oregon State college, May 3 and 4. Her companion
delegate, Connie In-gerson, the present executive, added that these
sectional meetings compensate for the national conventions at which
smaller colleges cannot be represented. "Revitalizing Women's
Organizations" was the theme followed by the delegates, who represented
schools in Washington, Oregon, Montana, and Idaho. In discussing college
problems, it was discovered that the Washington State Normal school at
Bellingham had fewer difficulties to meet than any other school,
represented. Talks were given on various phases of educational problems,
a report was given on the national convention held recently at
Bloomington, Indiana, and the delegates were entertained at dinners,
military reviews, and athletic events. The convention ended with a. grand
ball Saturday evening. Legislators And Faculty Entertained; Former
